Two Any Occassion Cards

Just wanted to share to cards I recently made.  

This was given to a neighbor as a Get Well card.  I asked my mother to crochet little doilies for me since I have no clue how to do it...and I don't want to learn!..lol  I think it adds such a special touch to the card.

This was a Sympathy card given to a neighbor who lost her adult son to cancer.  

Valentine Cards

Here are two Valentine Cards I made for Nina and Ian.  

For Nina's card, my hearts were cut using my ScanNCut machine.  Cuttlebug embossing folder was used.  Very easy and quick card.

For Ian's card, my heart shaped card was done using my ScanNCut machine with the online Canvas site.  This allowed me to weld the two hearts.  Though this can be done with just the machine, I like using the computer for designed work.  My little robot guy is a pre-set design within the ScanNCut.  I added the heart!

Christmas Stocking Albums

Since 2009 I've been making Christmas Stocking Albums for Joey and Elizabeth.  I wanted to share my gift to them by finally posting something on my blog in hopes of keeping it current.

For my stockings, I used a cut from someone's cricket cartridge.  By scanning it into my ScanNCut, I was able to save the cut and cut out exactly how many I needed and the size I wanted.  I wanted to leave plenty of room for photos, journaling and more embellishments.

2012

Until I got my ScanNCut, I used Make the Cut and my Cricut to cut out the stocking.  So much easier now having one machine that does it all.

I know I said this before, but....

I really am going to TRY and keep this blog current!  I've been busy doing crafts, but just haven't posted anything here.  So, I will try to keep up and post some projects when I get things done.

Here are a couple cards I recently made.

This is a card I made for my mom for Mother's Day

For a friend going through chemo

For a 'new' baby boy!

Here is a layout I did of my husband.  Joe passed away on June 19, 2013.  I wish I had gotten this done sooner so he could see it.

After I was done and glue was dried, I noticed my 'air force' was off center..ugh...!

A couple of cards

It's been a long time since I posted anything, so I thought I'd post a couple of cards I recently completed.

This is a card I made for a neighbor to give to a friend in the hospital.  She found out she is in stage two of breast cancer.

Pretty birthday card

I keep saying I'm going to keep up with my blog, but....Ok, I won't say it..:)

Just a couple of layouts...

I have gotten so bad about posting!!  I'm sitting here waiting to get tired enough to fall back to sleep, so...thought I would post a couple layouts I did a while back.

I don't think there is anything more that needs to be said about this layout...lol

My two beautiful grandchildren!!

Been A Long Time....

Wow, it's been forever since I posted on my blog!!  Since I completed a few layouts, I figured now would be a good time to get back into taking care of blog business!!..

In no particular order, here are a few layouts completed this past week.

HoneyBee Showcase-Pinwheel

What a fun week this is at Betty Bee's Buzz!! Our theme this week are pinwheels and the HoneyBees came up with awesome takes on the challenge.

As for me, I decided to do two layouts using a 12x12 piece of cardstock to make a pinwheel.

Of course, you know I had to do one of Ian and then one of Nina!!

Be sure to stop by Betty Bee's Buzz and check out what we have to share with you today.  Don't forget...we love seeing your projects too!!
